    Ouch. Sorry Disco Ninjas, that wasn't pretty in the end. I actually did manage to screw up my selection a bit, but my first and second picks of Murray and Green saw it through

    Delighted to get promotion for the first time.

    Don't know what your talking about. I still have one player left to play and there's only 73 points in it!! :cool:

    Seriously though, there was only going to be one winner. My team has been awful for the last 3/4 weeks. Only reason I got to playoffs is because of a 4/5 game win streak in the middle of the season. Best of luck to everyone left.

    In theory, no. You are in a playoff for fifth place, only the top four are promoted.

    In practice you will be promoted to Div 4 next season as there are always several drop outs etc, meaning everyone shuffles up the ranks.

    Yea I finished last in division 6 and got promoted this year due to drop-outs.

    I was in Division 5 last year and don't see my name on this list...or anyone else that I played with last year. Did we get bumped down or up again?

    Ditto. I don't frequent boards except for this time of year. Just found out I'm cut. Off to another NFL/ESPN league it is.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 388 ✭✭setanta74


    Lads, I will be acting as GM for this division this year. First time GM so bear with me.

    The Division 5 league is active and about 8 of us were already in there from last year.
    I have PM'd the other 8 with the link and password to register their teams.

    Will update all the league settings in due course according to the boards charter.

    I will also put up a poll for the draft next week. Kickoff is Thursday September 10th so maybe one of the nights that week (Mon-Wed) might suit us all.

    Any hassle with registering let me know and post up your team names here so we know who is who.

    I am "The Peeping Tomlinsons".....yes Charger fan!!!!!!!

    I have set up a doodle poll for possible draft dates. Please enter your user name when voting and select all possible dates that suit.
    One small factor which may not apply to some of you but Ireland v Georgia in the Euros is Monday night 7th September.
    I have put in every night from Friday to Wednesday (all the days between the last preseason game and kickoff)

    The link is here....

    Just an update. We have 15 of the 16 teams registered and ready to go. The voting is going well for the draft with 10 people having voted and at the moment Wednesday 9th is looking favourite.

    Just need Jme2010 to register and we are all set.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 388 ✭✭setanta74


    Lads,
    Don't know if some of you know jme2010 (Dublin Dragons) from last season but if you do maybe you can try and see if he is playing as he has not registered and I have prompted him a few times with PM's without reply. We may have to push on after today and see if we can get a 16th team in. Can't really hang on much longer.

    Cheers.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 388 ✭✭setanta74


    All sorted now and we have our 16 teams in. We are good to go.
    12 have voted on the draft day so for those remaining 4 get your vote in.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 388 ✭✭setanta74


    All the divisions within our Division 5 have been setup now and the fixtures arranged.

    The 4 divisional winners and 2 wildcards will make the playoffs. The Divisional positions were determined by last years final positions as per the master sheet on the fantasy thread posted by Spongey earlier in August.

    You will play each team in your division twice so the head to heads within each division will have a major bearing on making the playoffs or not so watch out for your divisional matchups each week.

    Wednesday 9th at 9pm is looking like the draft date at the moment. Still 4 people left to vote.

    Division 1:

    50 shadys of green
    Taylor's Hill Tigers
    Kerry Kings
    Portlaoise Patriots

    Division 2:

    Toonraiders
    Converse Nostars
    Chimi Changas
    Dublin G-Men

    Division 3:

    EarthWake Suhnami
    Fumble Rumble
    The Peeping Tomlinsons
    Wilfork for cash

    Division 4:

    Tallaght band
    Decker Like Rice
    Roebuck Racial Epithets
    The Monstars

    When will the draft order be decided?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    Looks like Wednesday the 9th at 9pm it is for the draft. See you then lads!

    On the night. It just pops up randomly when you log in once the draft goes live. I believe it's like 15-30 minutes before the draft kicks off.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 111 ✭✭aferru


    In NFL.com the draft still set for tomorrow night...better update it otherwise will be a massive autodraft...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 388 ✭✭setanta74


    Thanks for reminding me. I will fix that in a bit.

    We are all set to go for the live draft tomorrow night (Wednesday 9th) at 9pm. The draft order will be randomly set half an hour beforehand and the draft will be the usual snake format. 90 seconds per pick.

    Just to clarify as directed in the changes/decision making thread we are now keeping the 3 WR's format and no FLEX position this year.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 65 ✭✭Joemcn95


    Unfortunately for me I'm working tomorrow night so might miss a couple of rounds. :(

    Have my Pre-Draft Rankings set and will try and draft from my phone if im not too busy, so hopefully all works out.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 111 ✭✭aferru


    I should have kept it quiet and do a master draft while all the others in autodraft, like that episode in The League.... :-)

    Best of luck all for draft day tomorrow and for the season!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 388 ✭✭setanta74


    Very quiet in here today. You all must be busy planning your draft strategies. 1st round - Kicker 2nd round - Defence... etc etc ;-)
    Hope the draft goes well for everyone tonight and I hope also I don't balls it up. See you online later!!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 28,710 ✭✭✭✭Paully D


    I'm all set now. Have done a few mock drafts but at the end of the day all planning goes out of the window after about 5 picks! Good luck everyone. :)

    10th pick, a bit stuck between a rock and a hard place there with that!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 388 ✭✭setanta74


    Everything looks good to go. Hopefully everybody can login without any issues. Portlaoise Patriots get 1st pick. Use it wisely dude!!!!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,880 ✭✭✭Raphael


    Woop, 3rd pick.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,386 ✭✭✭✭DDC1990


    Is this working?

    Timer got to 0:00 and nothing for me?
    EDIT: Working alright, just had to refresh. Luckily had my draft lineup set up, and didn't land with Arian Foster or someone.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 388 ✭✭setanta74


    The draft went nice and smoothly so well done everybody...so now we get down to the serious stuff. Good luck to all.

    Enjoyed that lads, cheers.

    I'm quite happy with my lot. Only mistake/annoyance was not realising the Jets D were available as I had them marked down but didn't see them on the list and went with my 2nd choice, only to see the Jets go a short time later. Funnily enough my opponent this week has the Jets D, wait and see them be the winning of our match now! The joys of fantasy football, eh? :pac:

    See you on the battlefield lads. :D
